_______________________________________________________________________
Here recorded are melodies,ballards,children's ditties and
popular songs of the day presenting the sounds and emotions of
love,war,politics,nonsense,good and evil,drinking and just
simple fun.The music might have been heard in any of the
public houses and military camps throughtout the Boston area
and New England. All of the recordings have origins in
England,Ireland and /or Scotland arriving on our shores with
immigrants or refugees. May these songs stir your blood,calm
your soul,soften your heart or cause a laugh as they did for
many a Yankee hundreds of years ago. We pray you draw a pint
or pour a glass of spirits-then sit back,relax and meld your
being with the sounds of the past. If you are of a
mind,sing,clap,dance or tap your foot. Avoid not such urges
for they are the joy of freedom and liberty as we travel along
the 14 miles to Boston
